Episode #17 ft. Cole Reschny and Reggie Newman

Joining us for episode #17 of the Royals Roundup Podcast were two members of the 2023-24 roster, Cole Reschny and Reggie Newman. During the episode, we chatted about team chemistry, hometowns, milestone memories, while also putting them to the challenge of two drafts.

Starting with 16-year-old Cole Reschny, the third overall selection in the 2022 WHL Prospects Draft, he has been a player to watch in his rookie campaign. The 2025 Draft Eligible forward is currently sixth amongst rookie scorers across the Western Hockey League with 21 goals and 32 assists for 53 points in 55 games so far this season. His strong play has been recognized across the league, as he was named the November Rookie of the Month and Rookie of the Week on two occasions. He also carried a staggering 14-game point streak between October 9th and November 25th.

Eighteen-year-old Reggie Newman has also been having a career year with the Royals. In 62 games so far this season, Newman has earned 18 goals and 21 assists for 39 points. The towering forward is continuing momentum in his third season in Victoria, and his growth was recognized last summer as he was invited to participate in the Arizona Coyotes development camp.
